HERE.

And the "7 Great Endings" video is fun too.
 
My Mom never watched Columbo back in the day but "discovered" it recently on MeTV and now watches regularly.

The other night there was an episode where the murder victim drove a BRG Spitfire but was killed in her boyfriend's light blue E-Type coupe.
 
Here's a screen shot of an Episode in which a portion of the maintenance console for the NORAD SAGE Air Defense computer system is used as a prop. I was a maintenance man on the SAGE (IBM Q7) system back in the 70's. When they finally got around to upgrading the system, Hollywood bought a bunch of the components. I have seen bits and pieces appear in numerous movies and TV shows. The second picture is the maintenance console from the actual computer I worked on.
